New Trails, Happy Tails




I really miss running. I love to run on trails. Being surrounded by nature, its smells and the precious quiet time to sort through my thoughts. Nothing can really replace running, but I've developed a fondness for walking and hiking trails. I realized this week how few trails I have actually explored. In the past I would run the same routes week after week, month after month and year after year. Heaven forbid I stop for a moment, open a gate, close it and explore.
I had no idea what I was missing.
It is amazing what you see, when you slow down and walk.
